Hey guys,
So today's post is going to be a life update! I like writing these so I hope you guys like reading these haha! So far not much is going on really. I have mostly just been working a lot and then whenever I have free time I am trying to work on the house with my sister. We haven't been able to get too much more accomplished since we moved in but it's coming along. We'll probably be completely done by the end of next year haha. I am obsessed with searching on Pinterest for different ideas to do to the house. Since we can't really afford to fix up our outdated kitchen, we have been researching different ways to fix up our cabinet doors without having to replace them. Eventually we're going to add a backsplash and then figure out how to change the lighting. I think we're going to keep the same counter top because it's really expensive and hard to change that. Plus it would be stupid to change the countertop without changing the whole kitchen.
So another update is that I have been working a lot lately, I just finished working 8 days in a row, granted I didn't work 8 hours each day (most of them were 5-7 hour days) but this was first time that I reached almost 40 hours in one week so I'm really looking forward to that paycheck haha! I have today off and then tomorrow starts my 9 days in a row of working before having 4 days off. I'm not looking forward to working 9 days in a row haha. Although, working the 8 days in a row wasn't too bad but I did end up falling asleep super early one night because I was extremely exhausted. We recently had two people quit at one of my jobs and so that's why I ended up having to work so much. My guess is that I will probably have to cover some more of their shifts this week coming up but I haven't been asked yet. So we will see.
This weekend we worked on our front entryway and I'm really hoping that it will get done by the end of today and so if it does I will definitely be posting pictures or doing a blog post on it. It's definitely only one of the parts of the house that is coming together very well and will probably be done very soon. There are couple more things that we need to buy for it and finish making for it but other than that it's almost complete!
So I don't know if I have mentioned this but I actually got a new car recently. I have been wanting a new car for a while but at the same time I didn't really want to give up my old car. The car I used to drive was an Acura TSX. It's a 2007 but it's my baby, like I don't really think that it's that old even though there have been all of these updates to newer cars. My new car is the Infiniti QX30 and I got it in liquid copper, which looks more like a bronze/brown color in the picture below but most of the time it looks like a light pink or rose gold color. I am obsessed with it and I absolutely love the color! By the way I am only leasing it for 3 years so we decided to keep my old car and I will just drive it if I ever go over my miles and then my dad drives whenever I'm not using.
We currently don't really have any big trips planned anytime soon but we went to Tallahassee in January and then we took a day trip to Disney in January as well. I didn't go anywhere is February but the rest of my family did! I had to stay home and dog sit and work so that was fun haha! We have a couple trips planned in March but we're staying in the state haha! We have a trip planned to Universal Studios in a couple weeks and then we are going back up to Tallahassee to visit our friends again! The reason we keep going to Tallahassee is because our friends had a baby! And we love her so much (and all of our friends too haha) so we pretty much can't stay away. March is the last month before our friend has to go back to work from her maternity leave and so we wanted to spend some more time with her and help her get ready to go back to work by holding the baby for her whenever she needs us to haha!
Why do iPhone pictures always look so much better on the iPhone and horrible once you put them anywhere else?!?!
We also recently went to a Toby Mac concert and we had a blast. There were a bunch of other artists there as well such as Hollyn, Mandisa, and Capitol Kings. I love going to concerts and being able to sing at the top of my lungs!
Some other projects that we are currently working on for the house include redoing two chairs that my mom got for free from the place she works and then my mom and sister went thrift store shopping and found a couch to redo for $40! I wasn't too stoked about it because it's not what we had been talking about since we moved in but it's whatever because I told my sister she could design the library however she wanted!
So I might do monthly "life updates" or one every other month. I haven't decided yet! I think it will also depend on how much has happened in my life or what is currently going on.
